Union Minister Asks Congress To Make Its Stand Clear On Article 370

After Congress leader Digvijay Singh allegedly said that his party will have a "relook" at Article 370 revocation in Jammu and Kashmir if it returns to power, Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad asked the Congress to clear its stand.

Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad today asked the Congress leadership to make its stand clear on the purported remarks of Digvijay Singh that his party will have a "relook" at Article 370 revocation if it returns to power, saying "time of silence is over". While abrogating Article 370, good governance was promised both in J&K and Ladakh. The speed with which vaccination against COVID19 is going on even in the remotest parts of J&K and Ladakh is a sign of pro-people good governance. A row erupted on Saturday over Congress leader Digvijay Singh's comments in an audio chat on social media that his party will have a "relook" at Article 370 revocation and Jammu and Kashmir's lost statehood if it returns to power, with the BJP accusing him of spewing venom against India in "collaboration" with Pakistan. "It is now more than a day when the central leadership of the Congress is maintaining a conspicuous silence on its stand about Article 370. Does the Congress want restoration of Article 370 as Digvijay Singh has indicated? Time of silence is over. Please explain your clear stand," Mr Prasad wrote on Twitter.
